"Two of Wodehouse's funniest golfing novels in a beautiful gift box. Containing the classics The Clicking of Cuthbert and The Heart of the Goof. 'It's dangerous to use the word genius to describe a writer, but I'll risk it with him' - John Humphrys" "A beautiful collectable gift box containing two comedy classics on golf by one of the finest comic writers- PG Wodehouse. Superb hardback editions all with cloth binding, acid free paper and silk ribbon. A classic gift for lovers of comic writing, literary brilliance and of unforgettable characters. As entertaining, addictive and absorbing as a good round of golf."
"The author of almost a hundred books and the creator of Jeeves, Blandings Castle, Psmith, Ukridge, Uncle Fred and Mr Mulliner, P.G. Wodehouse was born in 1881 and educated at Dulwich College. After two years with the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank he became a full-time writer, contributing to a variety of periodicals including Punch and the Globe. He married in 1914. As well as his novels and short stories, he wrote lyrics for musical comedies with Guy Bolton and Jerome Kern, and at one stage had five musicals running simultaneously on Broadway. His time in Hollywood also provided much source material for fiction."
